E.ON is one of the ‘Big Six’ energy suppliers in the UK. It’s hugely popular, with a staggering 4.3 million customers across the country. But that pales in comparison to their global reach. E.ON operates over 30 countries, serving 33 million customers, making them one of the biggest suppliers of home and business energy in the world.
E.ON has recently moved all its customers onto 100% renewable energy electricity, showcasing their dedication to move to a more sustainable solution for its customers.
E.ON has won many awards over the years, but their most recent awards have seen them recognised by their customers and by their employees by being awarded:
E.ON business customers can choose from a range of fixed-rate tariffs for between one and three years. Much like the customer side, there’s a discount for paying by monthly direct debit of 7% discount, or 5% if you pay every quarter.
E.ON increased the number of commercial energy accounts they manage by absorbing nPower business energy customers after their acquisition.
E.ON offers customers a range of options to suit their circumstances, some requiring smart meter installation whilst others offering no exit fees. It’s best to check what you’ll need before signing up to make sure the tariff type meets all your needs.
Fixed Tariffs
You’ll know where you stand with these fixed tariffs as you’ll lock in your energy rates for the duration of the contract.
It’s worth noting that you won’t be able to take advantage of any drops in market prices, but you will also be protected against any rise in energy prices too.
Pay As You Go Tariff
A pay-as-you-go tariff is an advance payment that allows you to top up using the app or website or via Post Office vouchers.
Prepayment Tariff
This tariff allows you to pay for your energy in advance so you can keep full track of your spending and top up as and when required.
Variable Tariffs
E.ON’s variable tariffs allow you to take full advantage of any rises or falls in market prices.
